Try this skillet breakfast!

I love eggs but I hate frying or scrambling them. The second the egg starts sticking even a little bit I’m tempted to throw the pan out the window. This skillet breakfast is the best of both worlds - eggy goodness while also being super easy to clean.

You will need:

- 3 or 4 eggs

- 5 russet potatoes

- 1 tsp salt

- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar

- 1 package of bacon, any kind

- 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil

- parsley, oregano, onion powder, paprika, dill, OR Trader Joe’s Green Goddess and TJ’s Aglio Olio seasonings

- 2 tbsp butter

To make:

- wash and dice potatoes, patting dry

- in a cast iron, heat up 2 tbsp of oil. Add in potatoes and fry, making sure to brown all sides. Preheat oven to 400

- while potatoes are frying, add one tbsp of butter and your seasonings of choice

- fry bacon in a seperate pan and cut them into bitesized pieces.

- when potatoes are ready, add in bacon and mix.

- create wells where you will put the eggs. Cut a small pad of butter and put it at the bottom of the well to keep the egg from sticking

- crack your eggs into the well, making sure to keep yolk intact

- sprinkle any additional seasoning you would like and then bake for 8-10 minutes depending on how hard you want the egg to be (soft yolk lovers can bake for 6)

- remove from oven and sprinkle with cheddar cheese

- serve and enjoy!

... Read moreIf you're looking to enhance your breakfast experience, consider incorporating various seasonal vegetables alongside the potatoes. Bell peppers, onions, and spinach can add flavor, color, and nutrition to your skillet breakfast. Make sure to sauté them lightly with the potatoes for a wonderful blend of textures and tastes. Additionally, you can experiment with different cheeses to find your favorite flavor profile. Creamy feta or tangy goat cheese can provide a unique twist compared to conventional cheddar. Don't forget about the seasoning! Herbs like fresh basil or thyme can elevate your dish significantly. For those who prefer a spicy kick, adding jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce can bring a whole new dimension to this breakfast classic. Lastly, serving your skillet breakfast with a side of fresh fruit can add a refreshing contrast to the hearty flavors of eggs and bacon, rounding out your meal beautifully. Enjoy this breakfast on a lazy weekend or as a quick weekday pick-me-up, and impress your family or guests with this easy yet satisfying dish. Whether you are meal prepping or simply looking to change up your breakfast routine, this skillet breakfast is guaranteed to impress!
